Fire of Liberty
Here's an interesting article in The Times on Angela Merkel, the leader of the Christian Democratic Union opposition party in Germany, and her chances of becoming the future PM of Germany. With PM Gerhard Schroder's party suffering in a regional election and losing the Upper House to the opposition, he has decided to call a snap election this September. Hopefully, the armor of Schroder and his SPD party have enough stress points that Merkel and her fellow conservatives can retake the election and return to the days of Kohl (Except for the USSR and a divided government). Let's hope she is more like Thatcher than this article seems to reveal.
